Early view of the house from the street. Note: On the left is the entrance to the pantry/kitchen, behind a low "pony" wall. The original man-door to the garage is visible here. This was removed during the 1965 addition and replaced with a jalousie window. This was the only exterior modification to the original building. The Camphor trees in the parkway remain today, only they are much larger now. Photo courtesy of UCLA Research Library, Special Collections Dept. Early view of the house from the street.

View from back yard shows the house shortly after completion. Note location of garage door. A 1965 addition converted the garage to a large two-level bedroom. The addition also has another bathroom, laundry room, storage room & a new garage. The original garage door was used on the new garage. Photo courtesy of UCLA Special Collections dept.

View from living room sofa. The sliding door on is open to “bring the outdoors in.” The Neutra designed Camel table is seen in the foreground. The andirons in the fireplace (far right) remain to this day. This photo by Julius Shulman was featured in several periodicals at the time.

Dining area with kitchen in background. Front door is at far left. The built-in cabinet & seating (now lost) accommodated dining, with umbrella storage in the narrow cabinet. The dining table appears to be a small, square Camel table. The accent wall’s color is unknown. Note the dial telephone on the far right. Photo by Julius Shulman.

View from the back yard. The sliding door is open to allow access to the living room. The magnolia tree sapling in the foreground is now 25 feet tall. Note the photographer’s shadow in the foreground. Photo by Julius Shulman.

View of kitchen shortly after completion. Original cabinets and counter tops remain to this day. Note the soap dish atop the sink faucet. An identical faucet serves a utility sink in the pantry to the left. Photo courtesy of UCLA Special Collections dept.

View of living room looking east. The large sliding glass door is open on the left. The coffee table is the famous Neutra “Camel Table,” now lost. The Camel Table is seen in its “kneeling” position. The legs could be folded down to a “standing” position to convert to a small dining table. The name is derived from this kneeling/standing design. The accent wall is believed to have been dark blue. The chair at left still remains and it still occupies the living room to this day. Photo courtesy of UCLA Special Collections dept.
